Yes, according to what I read you have to build a special furnace to burn them. If the fire rating is true they are incredible insulation and it makes building a house much faster and eliminates problems with code. You just build a modified stick frame 12 inch thick in the floor , ceiling and walls. You can also build with rice bags.

Rice hull stoves are very popular in some countries. The pictures I've seen look like they burn very well.
